Working on a dragon holding a snake, protecting her egg. She is not being co-operative about coming out of the wood, but I will prevail!!!!!!!!!!!! She will not defeat me.........

Re: WIP- dragon

I see it peeking out of the wood... maybe a good kick in the right place and it will pop right out of there, can't wait to see it. Keep us posted ~ Dwight.

Re: WIP- dragon

That piece is going to really be neat when it's finished. What you have done so far is super.

Re: WIP- dragon

That's a great looking dragon, Deborah! It's funny that a few dragons seem to be popping up on the forum right now. I'm in the process of carving a caricature dragon myself. It's a fun subject to work with.

That's a great looking dragon!
I enjoy carving dragons too; they're rife with possibilities because they're a mythical creature.
Something to consider:
There's hundreds of possibilities with the eyes. My preference is hematite beads, big enough to fill the eye, or proportionate sized marbles, or even reptile eyes from a taxidermy supply house.
Eyes on a dragon or any other carving can make the difference between someone noticing a carving....or noticing a dragon.
Not the gospel...just a thought.
